Outside an isolated cabin, winter fog caresses spruce trees. Inside, two men, lovers, have enacted a plan of revenge, kidnapping the handsome son of the man who wronged one of them. Al, the accomplice, has stalked Rob for weeks, and his infatuation for the young man has grown deeper than he ever anticipated. So much so that he finds himself drawn to protect Rob from the rage and vengeance burning away his partner Jay's insides. Caring for their bound and gagged captive, with each passing day Al finds his power over Rob a potent and irresistible aphrodisiac and his heart dangerously moved. But Jay has no intention of ever allowing the young man to escape. Winner of the Pauline Reage Novel Award of the National Leather Association: International… (more)

I read this book as part of a challenge called 'Pushing Boundaries'. Well I'll have to admit that it definitely fit! This truly was stretching what I feel comfortable reading, but having said that I did enjoy the book. It was extremely well written and drew me into the story and the characters.

Did I like the rape or the violence that was rather graphically described here? No, not really. But it wasn't all about that. There was also the other side of the coin shown; caring, concern and tenderness. Not by the same person, but that's what made the book work in the end.

While this is not a story I'm likely to revisit I must admit that I I'm glad that I did 'push my boundaries' and read it. ( )

Found this book much harder going that the other one I've read by this author. The rape and captivity of one of the main characters I found to be just too brutal and a little scary. Just not my cuppa tea. The characters and how the story developed was not dissimilar to Purgatory: A Novel of the Civil War, which was recently published by the author. I think in Purgatory though, the actions of the captor sat more easily with me. In Fog, 'Al' just plain creeped me out. While it was well written, this one was not for me - hence the one star. Content just did not appeal. ( )
